Ingredients

Method

Hard boil the eggs, do not run under cold water but shell and cut in half. Lay in a shallow ovenproof dish and keep warm.

While the eggs are boiling, make the cheese sauce. When ready, stir in the French mustard and pour over the eggs.

Combine the grated cheeses and breadcrumbs and sprinkle over the eggs. Place under a moderate grill or broiler and cook until golden brown.

Garnish with slices of tomato and sprigs of parsley (optional). Serve hot.

Handy Hint

If liked, a 225g (8oz) packet of frozen spinach (leaf or chopped) can be cooked, following the instructions on the packet, drained well and placed in the dish with the eggs, and the sauce poured over the top.
